About This Gigapan

This is the "Amphitheatre" at Hallett Cove just south of Adelaide in South Australia. In this area, geologists began to understand the glacial history of Australia / Australian Gondwana. Out of view of this image to the right is a strata with glacial scrapes on it, indicating the direction of motion.
The strata exposed in this image shows various layers associated with different glacial times.

Information in the snapshots is loosely taken from "A field guide to The Geology of Hallett Cove" edited by R. Giesecke and produced by the Field Geology Club of South Australia Inc.
